My grandmother.

Characteristics

Rises at 20C in about 12 hours after removing from refrigerator. I can delay it's use after feeding by sitting it out for 1 hour before putting in the refrigerator which allows me to delay its use for 2-3 days... or 1.5 hours rest before putting in the refrigerator if not using for 3-5 days.
